The two groups fought hard, but the Wild Ones were losing and the members of the Legion noticed that.

Andy killed another Shadow soldier, before looking at Ashley.

“Ash!”

He looked at him.

“Get the Wild Ones out of here!”

Ashley gave a small nod of his head, before shouting orders for the Wild Ones to retreat.

The Wild Ones started doing what they were ordered and started running off to the direction of the camp, while the members of Legion stayed behind to fight off the rest of the Shadows.

Andy looked at the members of the Legion and saw that they were becoming exhausted.

He knew what he had to do.

“Guys!”

The other four members of the Legion stopped fighting and looked at him.

“Get out of here!”

They looked at him like he was crazy.

“We’re not leaving you!”

“No, guys! Just get out of here!”

They had no choice but to listen to him.

He was the leader of the Legion after all.

They ran off, leaving Andy to fight alone.

Andy fought as hard as he could, but he was stating to become tired.

That’s when he decided that he needed to run.

This little battle was just a waste of their time and it killed more Wild Ones than freeing their fallen brethren.

When he saw his opportunity to run, he took it.

Three Shadow soldiers started going after him.

“STOP!!”

They stopped and looked at Lei.

Lei looked at Evelyn.

“Quick, Evelyn."

Evelyn gave a small nod of her head.

She started chasing after the leader of the Legion, leaving Lei with the Shadow soldiers and guards.

Andy kept running and occasionally glanced over his shoulder.

He quickened his pace when he saw Evelyn coming after him.

A small smile tugged at her lips.

She had to admit, he was fast but not fast enough.

Andy kept running, but paused for a moment when he came to the only plant life in the entire desert.

A small jungle that went on for twenty feet.

He looked behind him and saw that she was coming closer.

He turned his attention back to the jungle and rushed into the unknown.

He had to find a place to hide in the gruesome jungle.

Evelyn stopped when she came to the gruesome jungle.

She cautiously stepped into the unknown territory and started looking for the Wild One.

Andy’s senses were on alert when he heard her coming through.

If he was going to end it, he was going to end it now.

          

He pulled out the small, hand made knife that he made out of his boot and clutched it tightly in his grasp.

He let out a slow, quite sigh.

She stopped where she was, because she swore that she heard something.

She looked and what happened next was so quick that she couldn’t process it.

One minute she was standing up and next minute she was pinned on the ground with a knife to her neck.

She looked to see who her attacker was and she was greeted by a pair of gorgeous blue eyes.

“Don’t move.”

She looked from him to the knife that was pressed against her neck, before looking back to him.

“Don’t worry. I wasn’t planning on it.”

“Well, I normally don’t attack girls. I would honestly feel bad for hurting a pretty girl like you.”

“Should I take that as a compliment?”

“Well, that’s what it was meant to be.”

She felt her eyes widened and her throat go dry.

It finally dawned on her who he was.

He was Andy!

“You’re still funny.”

Andy’s eyes widened.

It was her!

“Evey?”

He moved the blade from her neck, moved from on top of her and held his hand out to her.

“Oh, so, you still remember me?”

She took his hand and he helped her up.

“Remember you? I’ve never forgotten you.”

She felt her cheeks flush red.

He still remembered her after all these years.

They pulled their hands from each others’ grip when they realized that they were still holding hands.

Andy rubbed the back of his neck and Evelyn bit down on her lower lip.

He looked at her.

“I really did miss you.”

She looked at him and gave him a small smile.

“I missed you too.”

They pulled away from each other when she heard the sound of her Father.

Her eyes widened in horror.

“Oh, no.”

She looked at Andy.

“You need to run. I don’t care where you go, just get far away from here. I’ll distract my Father.”

She started to walk away when he grabbed her hand.

She looked at him.

“I want to see you again.”

“Andy, I’m not sure about that. I don’t think...”

She let out a startled gasp when he tightened his grip on her hand and pulled her toward him.

Their faces were inches apart.

“Evey, please. I want to see you again.”

She let out a deep sigh, because she knew that she was going to lose that fight.

She gave a small nod of her head.

“All right, Andy. Just please get out of here.”

He released her hand and started running deeper into the woods.

She already missed him.

“Evelyn!”

She looked over her shoulder and saw her Father and Lei.

“Father! Lei!"

They rushed over to her.

When they came up to her, he gently grasped her face.

“Are you all right?”

He moved a few strands away from her face.

“Are you hurt?”

She gave a small shake of her head.

“I’m fine, Father.”

He gave a small nod of his head.

“Good.”

Lei looked around and saw that there were no Wild Ones around.

Lei looked back to Evelyn.

“Where is that Wild One?”

“He got away from me. I’m very sorry.”

She and Lei saw the anger coming over his face, but it vanished when he looked at his daughter.

He let out a deep sigh.

“It’s all right, my dear. It’s not your fault.”

He hugged his daughter to him.

After a few seconds, he pulled away and looked at her.

“Let’s go home.”

He wrapped his arm around his daughter’s shoulders and started leading her back home with Lei and the Shadow soldiers and guards behind them.

Ki’Ta and the members of the Legion were waiting on Andy.

The tight feeling in Ki’Ta’s stomach disappeared when she saw Andy come through the front gate.

“Andy!”

She ran over to him with the other members of the Legion and the Wild Ones behind her.

She hugged him.

She was thankful to her spirits that he was all right.

She pulled away, so she could look at him.

She cupped his face.

“Are you all right? Are you hurt?”

He shook his head.

“No, Ki’Ta. I’m fine.”

She released his face with a small smile on her face.

“Good.”

She grabbed his hand and started leading him to the food tent.

“Then lets get you something to eat.”

But, Andy was draining out Ki’Ta’s words.

All he was thinking about was seeing Evelyn again.
